What a week of celebration.
The King's Coronation.
Vocabulary of the week was : Coronation and Past, Present and Future thinking here about the Queen Elizabeth, King Charles and future King William.
We have thoroughly embraced this, once in a life time event ready for the weekend. It helps us talk about, present and future events and why we have a king and queen. We also talk about families and think about our own family.
We talk about the traditions of royal parties in the past and what we might do to celebrate within our community.
In mathematics we have been adding on and combining two numbers within 10 to to make a new total.
In the woods we have been re-enacting the parade of the King and Queen and making crowns with natural resources.
We have a fantastic Coronation Tea party with Mrs parker and Mrs Hemingway on Wednesday.
We finished the week with the Prom's in the play ground.
What a busy week.
Enjoy the bank holiday!
